TL;DR Summary

The United States has expressed its expectation that India will cooperate with Canada in investigating the alleged involvement of Indian agents in the murder of a Canadian citizen. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had previously stated that Ottawa had credible intelligence linking Indian agents to the murder, leading to a strong denial from New Delhi. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken emphasized the importance of India working with Canada on the investigation, while also acknowledging the concerns raised by the allegations. The U.S. government has been closely consulting and coordinating with Canada on the matter. Trudeau reiterated his call for India to engage and cooperate, stating that Canada had shared the allegations with India weeks ago. The Canadian government has reportedly gathered intelligence, including communications of Indian officials present in Canada, in its investigation. However, specific details have not been disclosed, and Trudeau's office has neither confirmed nor denied the report.
